While there have been rumblings of Sony trying to produce their own live-action film based on Naughty Dog’s Uncharted franchise, we haven’t really seen any firm commitment to a movie actually happening. Today we’ve gotten the closest thing to a real Uncharted film, and it stars fan-favorite Nathan Fillion as Drake himself.
Featured above, the fifteen minute short film was made with director, writer, and producer Allan Ungar at the helm. Fillion is joined by none of than Stephen Lang as the boisterous Victor Sullivan, as the duo get wrapped up in yet another dangerous encounter in search of treasure.
The latest game in the Uncharted franchise, Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, released back in August of last year. The last game to star Nathan Drake was 2016’s Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End.
